Easter Carols

Carols were held Sunday at Kisubi Parish, the church that's right next door to St.Theresa.

The first choir to perform was the primary school that's also right next door to St.Theresa. They were nervous and would only sing a verse after the choir conductor sang it first. They were great though. I'm trying to upload the video onto this page.

I wish we had drums and clapping and people singing in church in the U.S. Its so joyful here and i've really loved being a part of their celebrations. The clapping surprised me when i first started going to church in Wakiso. Most congregations clap after the consecration of the host and the wine. I didn't know what was going on! And most songs come with a nice clapping pattern.

  1. when you're happy,
    and you know it~
    CLAP YOUR HANDS!!!

    where is the bean when you need him?!
    joy!
    to think the simple action
    of putting your hands together
    generates smiles
    on faces
    and
    in hearts!
    makes one stop and think
    of how many other 'simple' acts
    can arouse happiness
    in one's soul...

    looking forward to seeing more of
    your Easter Celebration
    con carino, be good!
